Let me be the first to say thanks for this. i hope I never need it but it looks amazing!

Thanks for this tool, just what i wanted

I guess this meant a lot of time to gather the info and to program, so great thanks!

It seems everytime I add a new batch of CC, there's one pesky little piece that causes a crash - even after scanning with SimPE, DDO, and the HCDU. AAARGH! If this helps find that file faster, then you are a saint!

I'm DLing now... (with crossed fingers :cylon: )

Unless it the CC causes an actual program error or warning within the Sims 2 it won't be able to show specifically what files are broken.

Thanks for the kind comments anyhow

Poop! I don't think this will help with that particular problem then.

I'm sure it will still prove a useful tool though - Thanks!!!

What I really need is something to turn my log files (which label every crash as an ACCESS VIOLATION) into useful information that I can actually read. I know the access violation crashes are caused by imperfect CC somehow - like too many itterations, only not just limited to one object by itself... I don't know enough (obviously ) and I can't explain it very well. My programming knowledge is nill, and at the best more of a gut-feeling thing.

Still, thank you for this new tool.

Maybe I’m slow to understand, but when I open Sims 2 Log – and click on “Generate Log” is gives me a long list of errors – and I don’t even had anything in the Downloads folder? Just what I put in the folder in die C/Programs?EA ..lates game exe. It complains: “ERROR TSAudio: Segment at %DataDirectory%Res\Sound\Locale\%Language%\Sfx\Samples\Karaoke\ has no extensions defined in section DBSegmentDirectoryFiles
.\source\TSAudioResourceManager.cpp(944)
C:/Users/Bessie/Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/zCEP-EXTRA/CEP-EXTRA_VideogameConsole.package
Overrides Semi-Global

Looks I've got more Errors than Game?

Very nice tool!! :-) Can't wait to use it!

It makes a good impression on me.
I have 2 quetions, the first one if there might be some files deleted/ changed and I don't know it. The most important things are my neighboorhouds/families etc, will they stay? (Hope so but need to ask. I'm always afraid of using programs. Dunno maybe my game won't like to be repaired )
And the more importer question is: My game does crush on a special lot when there's a family in it. I don't know why I've started just a pose with a posebox and after that it all crushes after some minutes.
So... will the progam be able to delete this crush`? What do you think?
Thank you for your hard work, I'm pretty sure soo much people will love you for creating it!

The program won't be able to fix the crash, only help you to find out whats causing it. Also, since it makes no modifications to any game files there is no chance that it will break anything.

when I click in "generator log" there is no info of my game !

What language does you computer speak? As I said in the overview, because of my own limitations of only having an English speaking PC - It will not work with certain languages.


If you are using an English version of Windows, then I have no idea at this point - sorry.

I understand, I don't have an english version of window, never mind.

BIG credits to ShanOW for taking the time and efforts to create something useful and better developed than the EA option. But, I'm laughing at myself and others who cannot really understand what you've got there. :-) All I know is....it's probably something I should have and will probably really appreciate some day. Have patience, Shan...you're way ahead of me. All of us have suffered crashes and there's absolutely nothing more frustrating and alarming....I'm trusting that if/when <God forbid> I suffer another, I'll really appreciate your work much, much more. (And, so will the poor souls I'm begging for help) :-D

So does this just go in the downloads folder?? I'm with skanning, that you are way ahead of me, but my daughter just had a crash and I'm wishing I had gotten this the other day when I saw it.
So for now it's in the downloads folder, unless someone tells me otherwise.
Thanks for still caring about TS2! I'm one of those just not interested in starting over with TS3.

No, it is a program so you can leave and run it from anywhere on your computer.

Thank you, ShanOw!

Yawn!
goodbye for text document!

i have a german language computer do u think will work on my computer?

Probably not, but you are more than welcome to send me a PM if you would like to contribute a translation; that way It would work flawlessly.

SOOO much better to have good info than someone saying "It doesn't work! Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!" I must start referring people to this when appropriate. Maybe you or someone could put links to this in the MTS wiki, where appropriate.

been looking for this but just now gettin it and alot of my ea folders are over now

I don't have this file _EnableColorOptionsGMND.package in my Downloads folder is it necessary for something?

You need this file for custom content recolors to show up in your game.
